I had good luck with cached offline apps until I tried including data from JSONP endpoints. Here's a tiny example, which loads a single movie from the new Netflix widget API: <!DOCTYPE html> <html manifest="main.manifest"> <head> <title>Testing!</title> </head> <body> <p>Attempting to recover a title from Netflix now.....
I've been looking into offline database storage with HTML5 and the built in Sqlite Db. I think it has a potential for things other than just storing data for offline apps. What I'm interested in, is hearing about potential uses of the database for storing things other than offline web page content. What has anyone in the commnity been u...
Hi all, we've trying to develop a mobile web app that will provide offline capabilities, not just reading but also creating content. Gears supports three important aspects: - local server so we can have cached static content such as html, css, js, etc - local database so that we can have data stored locally for offline access as well ...

Hi all! I'm looking into an offline web app solution using HTML5. The functionality is everything I need BUT the data stored can be directly queried right in the browser and therefore completely unsecure! Is there anyway to encrypt/hide so that the data is secure? Thanks, D. ...

The use case is to have an application store data on the client side when offline. Is it advisable to use the Web SQL Database (which Chrome and Safari support, not FF though), or wait for the browsers to implement the Indexed Database API? ...
With many browsers adding proper local storage support (and with this whole HTML5 buzz), there is a lot of talk about offline web apps competing with desktop software. But, as a matter of fact - one quick "clear private data" on your browser (which a lot of people do) - clears all the local storage data. I'm now thinking that local sto...
I am looking for a way to create a blog (with some other informative pages) using offline CMS. What I mean by "offline CMS" is: I should be able to write using a markup which is abstract (not HTML, or XML). Something like the MarkDown or Textile systems. The entries will be edited offline on my PC When I am done, I will need to (re)ge...
